Obsessive hunting Ⅰ

There was a lot of yin around, and it was the time when Li Yunsheng's mental strength was at its weakest. In order to avoid further troubles, Qi Mo took off the silver pendant around his neck and put it on for him, then directly picked him up and walked towards the way he came.

Xue Se followed behind with hands behind her back, stopped for a while, looked back at the Wall of Life and Death, and frowned slightly.

Maybe it's because she has been walking in this world for too long, she doesn't care about life and death, and she is not afraid of parting, so obsession naturally does not exist.

But she can understand that human beings are different from winged spirits. The lifespan of human beings is only a few dozen years, and sadness always comes more than happiness. The more painful memories are remembered, the easier it is to attract demons.

Even if she is a hunter and in the world of mortals, she may not be able to penetrate all this. She cannot help Li Yunsheng, nor can she become strong in his place.

And what she couldn't do, she hoped that Qi Mo could finally do it.

Qi Mo knocked on the door of a villager. The other party was a man about his age. He had obviously heard the movement just now. He knew that they were foreigners and that they were close to the wall of life and death. He refused to stay with them no matter what.And just as the latter was about to close the door, Qi Mo raised one hand to support the door frame.

"We only stay for one night, please make it easier for you."

"Not even for one night! You are not afraid of death, but I am!"

Qi Mo smiled, his tone was very gentle, but the threatening meaning contained in it was not concealed: "The ghosts in this village can kill you, and I can kill you too. It is hard to choose whether to stay alive or die immediately. ?”

The young man obviously didn't believe it, and felt that he was talking nonsense: "Just kidding! Do you think you are the Jade Emperor with great powers? How dare you talk nonsense to scare me...uh!"

The words stopped abruptly, because the other party clearly saw that Qi Mo's slender fingers resting on the door frame slowly moved away, leaving a scorched black mark on the place he touched just now.

"Don't let us in, my hand will be on your neck soon."

"..."

Xue Se also entered the room, and closed the door tightly. She met the man's vigilant and fearful eyes, and suddenly showed a girlish smile like a girl.

"what's your name?"

"...Wei, Wei Dong."

"Oh, I see." She signaled Qi Mo to carry Li Yunsheng to the bed in the back room, while she continued to appease Wei Dong's emotions, "Don't be afraid, we are not villains, but we are here to avert disasters in Nancun— —How about we tear down that wall tomorrow in exchange for a one-night stay?"

Wei Dong shuddered subconsciously: "You are really not afraid of death."

"We also studied that wall just now, so it's better to stand here and talk to you now."

These words were obviously convincing, Wei Dong glanced at her cautiously, his expression slightly shaken.

"You mean...you are Taoist priests? But a Taoist priest died here before." He couldn't help lamenting, "The wall that can kill people was erected after the Taoist priest died."

"We are not Taoist priests, we are much better than Taoist priests."

"what?"

Seeing his stupid and bewildered face, Xue Se felt that no matter how much she talked with him, he would not understand, so she cut straight to the point: "Let me ask you, did a group of robbers come to this village before, and they harmed five innocent people?" Girl?"

"Yes... just five years ago."

"Is it the kind of dirty thing done in broad daylight under the watchful eyes of the whole village?"

"Basically, it is, but I also listened to my father's narration. At that time, I happened to go out of the village to find relatives. After I came back, this thing had already happened, so I didn't see it with my own eyes."

Xue Se asked: "Where's your father?"

Wei Dong's expression froze, his eyes drooped, and he looked like he was about to cry: "My father died. When the wall first appeared, he followed the villagers to watch the excitement, and then..."

"..."

"I originally wanted to escape from the village, but all the people who rushed out before me died, so I realized that I might be trapped here for the rest of my life." He murmured, "My mother died early. , my father is gone, and the girl I like is in a town dozens of miles away, and I'm afraid I won't see her again in the future, and I didn't even have time to tell her, don't wait for me anymore, get married."

He is only 23 years old, he is just the most ordinary person, yearning for the most ordinary life, but now he is alone and can't see the way forward, even seeing the girl he loves is a luxury.

He didn't understand, what did he do wrong?

Hearing Xue Se sigh: "If she has been waiting for you, it means that you two are a natural match, and then you must be married."

Wei Dong replied with tears in his eyes: "Where is there such a chance?"

"Originally there wasn't, but we're here. As long as you stay at home obediently, it won't be too long before you leave the village."

"..."

The fire in the back room was burning. Qi Mo stood by the mottled wooden table, poured a glass of warm water calmly, then turned his head, and met the gaze of Li Yunsheng who was beside the bed.

He paused, and asked softly, "Are you awake?"

Li Yunsheng's face was morbidly pale, but his narrow and handsome eyes were still as clear as before. He put his hands on the silver pendant around his neck, and spoke calmly for a long while.

"I told you to read a joke."

Qi Mo said: "What jokes can I see from you? If it wasn't for the protection of this pendant at that time, I'm afraid my situation is not much better than yours."

"come over."

"Ok?"

Li Yunsheng repeated word by word: "Come here, are you injured again?" He was referring to Qi Mo's bleeding hand.

Qi Mo obviously didn't care much about his wound, he just tore a piece from the handkerchief that wrapped the dried sweet potato before, and bandaged it hastily, but the blood didn't stop completely, and was still oozing out.

"It's just a small injury, it won't take long for it to heal on its own."

Li Yunsheng chuckled, raised his eyes and stared at him deeply: "Then what is not a minor injury to you?"

Qi Mo sat on the edge of the bed, and handed over the porcelain cup filled with water in his hand: "For example, the knife didn't touch my hand, but stuck in your heart. To me, it is an irreparable mistake."

"Hey, if you say that, don't you want me to owe you favors?"

"There was no difference between you and me who owed whom, just live."

"Then your request is really not high."

"We are hunters. This kind of request is already difficult."

Walking on the tip of the knife all year round, I don't know when I will die in the underworld. It is not easy just to be alive.

Li Yunsheng also fell silent. He closed his eyes for a long time, finally got up and sat side by side with Qi Mo, and lit a cigarette for himself.

The moment the smoke dissipated, he sighed softly: "I sometimes think, maybe one day I will confess to this road, like my master and senior brother, to add one more to the roster of hunters and killers throughout the ages." A bloodstain, in fact...that would be pretty good."

Life and death are both vigorous and vigorous, and if you have a clear conscience, you will not be in vain.

Qi Mo patted his hand reassuringly: "Your senior brother, maybe he's still alive."

"That's nothing more than an excuse I made for myself, otherwise I would have no reason to move forward." Li Yunsheng stared at the flickering fire between his fingers in a daze. For a moment, there were faint tears in his eyes, "But the fact Now, in the situation back then, how could Senior Brother have any hope of surviving?"

He is always self-hypnotizing, self-deceiving, obviously unable to convince himself, but still sticking to this lie, as if stubbornly unwilling to wake up in a dream.

"Yun Sheng, you..."

"But it doesn't matter, even if I can't find my brother in my life, I have to keep going." Li Yunsheng smiled, "Until I don't kill the real culprit, I won't give up easily."

He will become braver and stronger, even if it is just to go to the Nine Springs openly and meet them.

Unwilling to compromise, persistent to death.

There seemed to be a sour warm current in the depths of his heart, Qi Mo quietly looked away, he looked out the window, as if he was talking to Li Yunsheng, and also seemed to be talking to himself.

"Me too, I will work hard to live until the day you get your wish."
